( By Silit ron Jerome ) voice

Cubs, Scouts, Brownies busy
The cub pack met on
Saturday ,.thorn ing at the
leaders house. We were
joined by a new leader
Jahn Miller,'who will be a
great help to us.
:We had some work to
do first, selling the rest of
o>tir calenders. This done
wp headed for the Scout
Cpmp, where we were
greeted by the Bayfield
and Vanastra troops and
given an area so we could
bilild our fires.
After clearing the area
of `•brush we collected the
proper wood to build our
fires. When the fires were
going we cooked hot dogs
and warmed our hot
chocolate.
The Bayfield Scouts
brought over a small milk
snake for the Cubs to see.
WO also, made a short,
hiljm to the river to see the
salmon.
From the river one
graup set out to lay a
trill. The other group
followed about five
minutes later, but failed
to'follow the whole trail
and returned to camp
before the first group.
A. time was allowed to
build dens. These were
made out of dead trees
and either stood against
another tree, to form a
tepee or laid over a
hollow in the ground.
They then covered these
with ferns and leaves.
The dens completed,
we gathered up the boys
and left for home
returning about 3 pm. An
enjoyable time was had
by all.
Scouts Camp
The Vanastra Scout
Troop was joined by 12 of
the Bayfield scouts in an
overnight camp this past
weekend. They met at the
Vanastra Troops camp on
Saturday morning.
Most of the morning
was spent erecting their
tents and stowing the
gear. Setting up camp
also included building a
latrine, a new experience
for lmost of the boys.
The purpose of the
camp was to get the boys
out with another troop to
have fun and also for the
leaders to see how the
boys acted in the out-
doors. Both of these
objectives were ac-
complished and everyone
enjoyed themselves.
Thanks goes out to
Dennis Smith, Ron
Plumsteel and Fred Gale
for driving the Scouts to
camp.
Next weekend, four of
the Vanastra Scouts will
be returning to camp.
They hope to complete
the requirements for
their adventuring badge,
this includes a five mile
hike with full back pack.
Good Luck to these boys.
Brownies
At the regular meeting
of the Brownies on
Monday night an open
discussion was held
regarding the Hallowe'en
party, a hayride and the
Christmas bazaar. The
Guides have invited the
Brownies to attend their
Hallowe'en party at 6 pm
on Monday evening The
Brownies are to come in
costume.

that was to be held this
coming Saturday has
been cancelled and will
be held on Sunday

Thirteen members of
the teen club met this
week at 7 pm at the
Vanastra Resource

to the club. The first part
of the evening was spent
discussing future plans
and ideas for crafts.
The teens decided to
-make candles and candle
holders for the December
Christmas bazaar being
held at the Resource
Centre. This week's
project was making
plaster cast figures. Due
to the high school dance
most . members will be
absent for next week's
meeting, but anyone not
going to the dance is
welcome to drop into the
centre Friday night at 7
and continue working on
their plaster casts.
For a homemade in-
secticide fol' your plants,
fill a jar with water, and
add onions and garlic. Let
stand several days to a
week. Spray the plants
with the water.
Put eggshells in a large
jar and fill with water.
Use the liquid to water
plants.
To protect delicate
African violets from the
bright sun, cover them
with sheets of tissue
paper. This protects the
foliage from burning and
spotting.
